Winter's done, and April's in the skies,
Earth, look up with laughter in your eyes!

O wild, dark flower of woman, Deep rose of my desire, An Eastern wizard made you Of earth and stars and fire.

Time, like a flurry of wild rain,
Shall drift across the darkened pane!

Grey rocks, and greyer sea,
And surf along the shore --
And in my heart a name
My lips shall speak no more.
